This is the part of the conversation where I have to admit that you could be right, but I don’t know enough to say one way or the other. And since I have no plans to become a pediatrician, I don’t intend to go find out.

In this hypothetical, the AI would be trained on fully clothed adults and children. As well as what many of those same adults look like unclothed. It might not get things completely right on its initial attempt, but with some minor prompting it should be able to get pretty close. That said, the AI will know the correct head size proportions from just the clothed datasets. It could probably even infer limb proportions from the clothed datasets as well.

I think there are two arguments going on here, though

1. It doesn’t need to be trained on that data to produce it
2. It was actually trained on that data.

Most people arguing point 1 would be willing concede point 2, especially since you linked evidence of it.

I don’t believe you’re fully arguing in good faith here.

I’m assuming you’ve seen a naked adult, and if you had never seen a naked young person, I don’t believe for one second you would be unable to infer what a naked young person might look like. You might not know for certain, but your best guess would likely be very accurate.

Generative AI can absolutely make those same inferences, so it does not need inappropriate training material for it to generate it.

The AI knows what a young person looks like.
It knows what a clothed adult looks like.
It knows what an unclothed adult looks like.

An AI trained on 100% legal material could make that inappropriate inference without even trying.

Now, have all the popular AI models actually been trained on 100% legal material? I have no way of knowing that answer, but you’re incorrect to assume that just because it can output inappropriate images, that absolutely 100% proves that data was also included in its training input. Edit: nevermind, it definitely has been trained on inappropriate material, but that doesn’t disprove that it doesn’t need to be.

He’s saying “crime pays,” so the tax won’t hurt them.

The viewing options OP listed should all work with AV1, I think they were just worried by the preset names. Plus, hardware support should only get better.

OP, you should be able to adjust settings after you select a preset, so you can pick different dimensions/frame rates/audio codecs/etc.

Side note, I’ve found that the matroska container is the easiest one for me to use if I want better subtitle support.

“Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I’ll most likely kill you in the morning.”

Falling injuries would skyrocket if that door opened outward.

Did she happen to have the entire interview recorded? Would be nice to see how well she did.

In headlines, a comma is often used in place of “and”, so it should be read as “GOP Rep sued for falsely claiming man was Chiefs’ parade shooter and illegal alien”

It’s probably closer to a strawman or false dichotomy, than it is projection.

Though, providing basic needs to prisoners seems like a relatively small price to pay to keep them off the streets and hopefully deter other crime.

It just asks you again

And even if the 240 million laptops were all 24" ultra wide behemoths, that’s still only ~146,304 km; not even half the average distance to the moon.

I wouldn’t even call the article hyperbole, but if we take the author in good faith, then they’re just terrible at math.

I sync OneDrive to my Synology as well, another reason I'm okay with the "double" traffic is that my and my wife's photos from our smartphones immediately get backed up to our Synology, even when we're away from home.

I've heard conservatives claim that many liberals actually want forced abortions, because it's really about eugenics and population control.

The original question was whether it was legal, not whether they could get away with it. If they did get caught, there is a very high likelihood they could be convicted of fraud.

Okay, maybe a not-for-profit organization that he voluntarily resigned from gave him a golden parachute deal with perpetual royalties that's totally secret. We can never know …

One thing we do know? Using Brave has a 100% chance of supporting him financially.

Android has allowed you to randomize your mac for a long time, and is currently the default setting. In developer options you can even toggle a setting to enable non-persistent randomization.

When I lived in England, I felt like I was going to freeze if it got colder than 17°C, usually had the heat set to 19°C. During the summer, probably around 22-24°C.

I now live in Phoenix, AZ, and set it at about 65°F in winter and 74°F in summer.
